Trans people belong in Indiana. Anti-trans bills don’t.

🗣️ STOP THE SLATE OF HATE.

This is an important graph. The share of national income going to the richest 10 percent was lowest (and share to lower 90 percent highest) when union membership was at its highest. As unions have weakened, inequality has widened. It's not about economics. It's about power.

@RepBowman White men still out here pointing their finger in people's faces 🤦

Trans people belong here, no matter what lawmakers say or do. 🏳️‍⚧️

[Jennifer McCormick @mccormickforgov]

Schools…
1) plan
2) prepare
3) practice/drill
4) communicate w/ lawmakers our concerns about gun violence

GOP Lawmakers…
1) send thoughts
2) pray
3) arm teachers
4) kill common sense gun safety legislation

While kids and educators continue to die.

Enough!

IT IS 2023 AND I AM ADMITTING THAT I HAVE NO INTENTION OF READING EVERY BOOK I BUY. I LIKE COLLECTING THEM. I LIKE HAVING LOTS OF THEM AROUND. I LIKE BEING SURROUNDED BY STORIES AND POSSIBILITIES. I WANT A LIBRARY. I AM NOT A BOOK MINIMALIST LEAVE ME ALONE (WITH MY BOOKS).

This whole thread is excellent, but this in particular 🙌

[Jay Wamsted @JayWamsted]

If things keep getting done they will keep asking more of us. The system doesn't care about teachers or students; it just wants to squeeze the most work out of the least amount of people.

We must let things lie on the table, unfinished. That is the only way to change the system

JUST ONCE, I want to be part of a staff meeting where the agenda reads ‘Things We Are Removing From Teacher Plates.’

In my 24 years of teaching, I’ve NEVER been this exhausted.

[@lorenagerman on bluesky 💗 @nenagerman]

There is a difference between critiquing teachers & critiquing the profession.
One says: Teachers don't know what they're doing.
The other: I see a problem in the field that must change.

The latter is helpful. The first is often misogynist.

For the trans kids in Texas,
the LGBTQ+ youth in Florida,
and the people of Ukraine…

Lord, in your mercy,
Hear our prayer.
